A brilliant piece on Mika Matti - HibeesBounce.com

**1875** · 11-01-08, 22:56

I know we should not bump our own admins up but SKII talks of the prodigal son in a way that makes my heart burst, read it and remember what it means to be a Hibby....

Click here, I dare you.....

Excellent article - sums up the despair of recent months and this week's renewed optimism perfectly.

I like the focus on the optimistic side...

thats' what I think we should focus on

**greencol** · 11-01-08, 23:11

Very Good indeed.

Dazza · 11-01-08, 23:12

Every word couldn't be more true!!

Now lets show tommorow just how much were glad he's back home and get ER bouncing and hear the hibee roar again something that has been missing since before JC left IMO.

**dc_hibs** · 11-01-08, 23:16

Quality... hope the feelgood factor has also got through to the players in the little time he has had.

Looking forward to seeing the game on Interactive a lot more than I was earlier in the week.

Great stuff

Excellent piece, SK - fair made the hairs on my neck stand up. Well done and thank you.

PathheadHibby · 12-01-08, 09:45

Superb piece of writing, well done and totally expresses how most of us feel now. Cant wait for todays game and to see some smiling Hibbies again. Love Street was so depressing and to see some fans arguing amongst themselves. I also agree 100% with Dazza's comment last night about the noise levels at ER.......it is time for us all to scream on our beloved team again. Hoping for a big crowd as the team will need our backing more than ever today

**Tully** · 12-01-08, 10:05

superb stuff
